Rings

There was a Celebrity
Golf Tournament last Monday and I did caricatures of some of the "main
attractions." One of them was a famous baseball player (who will
remain unnamed) who retired in the early 70s with 4 huge Champion rings.
I enjoyed talking with him although I was embarrassed for his sake because
I didn't have a clue how "important" he was. Baseball isn't
my game. When he showed his rings I sensed a disappointment that it didn't
mean anything to me even though it looked like "everything to him."
It was his legacy.

He said he enjoyed
every minute of his career because he was living his dream. The saddest
day was when he had to retire.

What is your legacy?
Your house? Your dream car? Your family? Your career? Build anything?
Paint anything? Start anything? Did you make a dent in the world? Will
the generations be better off because you were born?

Should it bother you
that you were a pawn instead of a King? May I suggest we all have a purpose?
Some more amazing than others. And that purpose is between you and God.
And if God wanted you to be a pawn, that's wonderful purpose.

Rick Warren wrote
a life changing best selling book. Perhaps you've heard of The
Purpose Driven Life? You know what he said? "It's not about you."
Oooooh!

Composer MovieContributed by

Steven Spielberg
contacted Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis and Arnold
Schwarzenegger and asked if they would appear in a huge film he was
planning about famous composers. He said he'd let each one select the
composer of his choice to portray.

Bruce Willis said,
"I've always been a fan of Mozart and would like to portray
him."

Sylvester Stallone
said, "I'd like to play the part of Chopin."

Then they all turned
to Arnold, who thought a minute and then exclaimed: "I'll
be Bach!"
